What is truth? -- Pontius Pilate

Simplicity means the achievement of maximum effect with minimum means. -- Dr. Koichi Kawana

Workers of the world, the chains that bind you are not held in place by a ruling class, a "superior" race, by society, the state, or a leader. They are held in place by none other than yourself. Those who seek to exploit are not themselves free, for they place no value in freedom. Who is it that really employs you and commands you to pick up your daily load? And who is it that you allow to pass judgment on the adequacy of your toil? Who have you empowered to dangle the carrot before you and threaten with disapproval? Who, when you wake each morning, sends you off to what you call your work? Is there an "I want to" behind all your "I have to," or have you been so long forgotten to yourself that "I want" exists only as an idea in your head? If you have disconnected from your soul's desire and are drowning in an ocean of "have to," then rise up and overthrow your master. Begin the journey toward emancipation. Work only in such a way that you are truly self-employed. -- Tim Gallwey, The inner game of work

An interpreter raises the machine to the level of the user program; a compiler lowers the user program to the level of the machine language. -- SICP

A journey of a thousand miles must begin with a single step. -- Lao­Tzu

You can recognize truth by its beauty and simplicity. When you get it right, it is obvious that it is right. -- Richard Feynman

You can never cross the ocean until you have the courage to lose sight of the shore. –Christopher Columbus

Everything has beauty, but not everyone can see. –Confucius

All progress takes place outside the comfort zone. ~Michael John Bobak

The mind is everything. What you think you become. –Buddha
